From the Trail running Station®, you will start the route by climbing through the woods to the Col d'Iloire where you will have the opportunity to admire the panorama of the lake and the Gorges du Verdon.
At the Col d'Illoire, you will continue your journey down a magnificent balcony path overlooking the Gorges.
After that, you will continue the ascent to the Grand Margès in a magnificent forest and then on the ridge overlooking the military testing area and its deserted expanses (under no circumstances should you leave the GR). Once you reach the summit, you will be overwhelmed by the 360° view that awaits you. The technical and long descent to Aiguines will then begin. Stay careful.

The key of the reception center is available at the secretary of the City Hall of Aiguines
